Bro. Hobbs is a candidate for Score.
tary Of the Senate, and knowing him
to be well qualified for the position,
we hope he will be successful in his
race. We think il lie about time that
the Democrats were giving their odi-
tors few places, and in this instance
the Senators should not forget Bro.
Hobbs claim.-Summit Sentinel.
B. T. Hobbs, of the BRooKHAvEN
LEADER, will be candidate for Sec
rotary Of the next Senate. Mr.. Hobbs
would fill the place admirably, being
methodical, prompt and well qualified.
We know of no one who would per-
form the duties of the office with more
credibility, or who would give more
satisfaction.-Signdl Copiahdn.
Our esteemed and talented friend,

better qualified for the position or
would fill it more crediably than Bro.
Hobbs.-Crystal Springs Meteor.
b. T. Hobbs, one ofthe best men and
best editors in the State is a candidate

Mr.. b. r. Hobbs, of the BROOK

perform the duties or the position ably.
-Yasoo Herald.
Mr.. B. T. Hobbs, of the Brook
HAVEN LEADER, announces that his
candidacy for Secretary of the State
Senate is not so much the result of n
yearning for the EonOrs and emOlu
ments of office as of humane desire
to relieve Col. d. p. Porter of oner-
Gus duties of the position which have
been imposed upon him byinconsider-
ate Senators from time immemorial
Hobbs will have the consolation ofbe-
ing inspired by Il pure motive if he
never accomplishes his purpose.-7u-
pelo Journal.
Mr.. B. T. Hobbs, of the Brook
HAVEN LEADER, an upright, cOnscien-
tious gentleman, is a candidate for
Secretary of the Senate. We hope he
will get there, for he would make a
good one. Mr.. Hobbs is one of the
best newspaper men in the State
Clay County Leader.
Bro. B. T. Hobbs, Ofthe BROoKHAvEN
LEADER, one of the best Democratic
papers in the State, is candidate for
Secretary of the Senate. Hobbs is
thoroughly qualified for the Office, and
if Price Porter can be persuaded to
step down and out Hobbs will accept
the place with thanks. Porter has
been Secretary ever since the State
was admitted into the Union, and we
should think it was about time for him
to retire and rest from his labors. He
is a good fellow and all that, but he
ought to let another good fellow have
some of the chicken pie.-PdscagouIa
Democrat Star.
If we had looked all over the State,
we could not have found man better
qualified to fill the position of Secreta-
~ of the Senate, or one who more de-
serves recognition and reward than
Mr.. Hobbs, of Brookhaven. Those
Senators who believe in honest gov
and are opposed to the cor
rupt tools of the powers that be will
be very apt to give Mr.. Hobbs their
strong support. He is an estimable
and honest gentleman, who is not pos
sessed of any of the arts of the dema-
gOgue, is commended by sterling
worth and purest purity of character.
